Many thanks everybody for the responses and to FERNSEH for kindly uploading the schematic diagram. The wealth of knowledge and resources of this forum is truly amazing!

Your responses have prompted me to go ahead and make a few basic checks on the set to see whether it is indeed a viable project. Initially, I plan check the CRT heater for continuity. If this checks out OK, I'll make some cold checks on the other wound components and then I'll attempt to reform C57A/B. After snipping C58, which is wired across the mains input, I'll carefully apply some mains and see what happens! I intend to do as little as possible to the set prior to applying power.

The CRT looks rather vulnerable when the chassis is withdrawn, so I'll need to take care whilst working in this area.

I'll be back to give an update on my progress if the set looks to be salvagable. Here's hoping the CRT has some life in it!

Adrian.
